Lucknow,

April 10 (HS): Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Friday

inaugurated the National Interventional Council 2026, organized by the

Cardiology Society of India at the Atal Bihari Vajpayee Medical University in

Lucknow. Expert doctors from India and several countries participated in the event.

On this occasion, Chief Minister Yogi said that a sick India cannot become

strong, prosperous, or self-reliant. For health, people will have to change

their daily routine before seeking treatment. Doctors will have to step up to

the plate.

Addressing

the event, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said that the organization is holding

this seminar in Lucknow after a long journey. This represents the new face of

Uttar Pradesh in a changing India. Today, India stands out in the world with

new competitiveness. Before 2017, Uttar Pradesh itself stood as a sick state.

Today, it stands in a leading role in India.

This

is a matter of concern for all of us. In a country like India, where attention

has been paid to these things since ancient times, sleeping and waking up on

time, having a balanced diet and nutritious food has been a part of our life.

All this was included in our daily routine. Daily routine changed, lifestyle

changed and its consequences are also in front of us all. The challenge we are

all surrounded by today. There are two aspects of this. This is the aspect of

prevention and treatment. You are interested in treatment. You must be

interested in research in this field. But I believe that prevention is more

important. For this, awareness should be spread. A large number of people are

falling prey to this disease.

Chief

Minister Yogi said that it is not that the government has not taken any

concrete steps in this direction. Eight to ten years ago, if a person fell ill,

the family was most worried about money. More than 60 crore people of India

have been linked to the health scheme. They are getting free treatment. Apart

from Ayushman Yojana, people in Uttar Pradesh have been benefited from the

Chief Minister Jan Arogya Yojana. Along with the state employees, recently

Anganwadi workers, cooks, Shiksha Mitras and instructors have also been

provided with the facility of free treatment. Today, 81 medical colleges and

two AIIMS are being run successfully in Uttar Pradesh.

Yogi

said that the government has made other efforts besides increasing facilities.

Equipment is available at cheaper rates, and pharma parks are being

established. These efforts will make treatment accessible. Despite all this, if

we do not change our lifestyle, we cannot have a good life. Medical colleges

are crowded with patients. Are doctors able to give enough time to their

patients? The general public spends four to six hours a day connected to their

smartphones. Therefore, it is important that everyone makes changes to their

daily routine. If a doctor advises this, people will be more likely to listen

to him.

The

Chief Minister said that adulteration is at its peak today. I visited a

district and inquired about dairy products. You can order as much dairy

products as you want, and they supply them. When a raid was conducted,

thousands of quintals of khoya and paneer were recovered. Today, you are

attending a program, but there is no guarantee of what you are eating. There is

no guarantee that what you think you are eating is actually adulterated. Therefore,

change your daily routine. Prime Minister Modi promoted yoga along with

medicines. The world is embracing it. The government has worked towards making

treatment affordable. It is God's grace that the poor rarely suffer from heart

disease. They work hard. Chief Minister Yogi said that a sick India cannot

become strong, prosperous, or self-reliant. He appealed to doctors to consider

both aspects. This will not only be good for the field but also for a healthy

society. Only a healthy society can make the country healthy and prosperous.
